Half-year-a-versary!

Today, Nov. 2, we've been married six months. I think that together we've experienced nearly every emotion possible over the course of those months -- elation, hilarity, fear, disappointment, contentment, frustration, and grief. What a ride, this marriage thing! Six months may not be a major milestone, but we celebrated with a candlelight picnic of yummy finger foods in our living room last night, leaning on each other with eyes closed as our reception dinner music played. And we made a pact: celebrate "us" often.

{about me}

I've been in love with words, oil paints, and pretty things for many years ... and in love with Patrick for more than eight. After chronicling the craziness of wedding planning and the first few steps through "i do," I'm now figuring out how to be me and be a mom and wife.
